Back Home

Kristin Cavallari returned to a place that Kristin hasn’t been in over 2 months, and a place where Kristin in her heart calls home, the offices of Uncommon James in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee, downtown where it all happens, as Kristin couldn’t be more happy to be back in her own work space, and out of the house.

For Kristin’s first day back, Kristin made it a special occasion by wearing UJ’s finest, Kristin Instagram story shows off Kristin with 3 earrings, Harlem, Rymen, and Arrow, and it’s topped off with the Bahia statement necklace, representing glory in every corner.

Right before Easter, Kristin was longing to be back at her Uncommon James office, which Kristin had to leave when stay-at-home orders were put in place, and Uncommon James had to close up their stores as a safety precaution.

Now that COVID19 restrictions are easing, Uncommon James stores are again open, but with social distancing implied, curbside pickup if you’re not ready to be in large crowds yet.

Never Back Down

Nick Cordero had COVID19, but has been negative of the virus for weeks now as Nick’s wife, Amanda Kloots, revealed today in her Instagram story updating his condition, which Nick is slightly better than yesterday from.

Keep in mind, Nick is still very sick and battling a lot, turning him on a proning position today to open his airwaves, which has been done before and helped a lot, and cleaning out his lungs again to help Nick fight the infection.

Since Nick is COVID19 negative, the fallout from COVID19 is what Nick battles, as well as infections that creep up from being in the ICU for a very long time, so Amanda wants you to keep the prayers coming.

It was that very lung infection that cause Nick to have a brief downturn last Wednesday before recovering from that setback a day later.

‘Tis No Season

Gucci made the drastic decision on Sunday that it is pivoting its collections into a whole new direction, it’s dropping seasonal collections of fall, pre-fall, spring, and summer, and going season less, knowing no time of year of when pieces are suppose to be, thanks to COVID19, and plummeting sales crippling the fashion industry, and all other industries.

Gucci will only have two collections a year that will catwalk, following suit with Gucci is Saint Laurent, who’s also on the lean to only have 2 collections of year walk the runway, responding to the COVID19 world of social distancing, and change to comfort wear, leading again to thin sales everywhere else.

A strong commentary from the CFDA & BFC about how COVID19 has crippled the fashion industry strongly recommends designers, brands, and retailers slow down their merchandise deliveries because inventory stacks up too fast, and know when it’s the right time to sell product, practice sustainability with collections and travel, and get strictly back to creativity instead of hard focus on fast collections.

And applauding these efforts which is sure to have a domino effect on every house in fashion are Fashion Mingle, who’s been devoted like many influencers in fashion to stress about season-less collections, because there’s no telling when the new COVID19 normal will give away to the normal we’re use to.

It’s The Weekend, Finally

Kristin Cavallari had plenty of reason to turn a small feat into a joyous monumental moment today, as if the weekend wasn’t plenty of reason to jump for joy, or the fact that it’s Memorial Day weekend, a 3 day weekend, or the unofficial start of summer, Kristin rejoiced as she was able to get flowers at her local farmer’s market in Nashville, Tennessee again.

Aside from the beautiful flowers, Kristin bought herself a box full of vegetables, which seem to be carrots, scallions, beets, and other garden goodies that come to mind in this summer season that’s finally started.

Each small step for Kristin is another moment of victory as Kristin begins a new chapter in her life without Jay Cutler, though Kristin did sadly say good-bye to her three season E! reality show, “Very Cavallari” on Tuesday, saying she was grateful for the adventure.

But on the upside, Kristin discovered another small victory in her corner, like playing “Ms. Monopoly” on Thursday, where women make more money than a man at every move.
